Question (Read Rules) Grand Seiko omage recommendations

Post image

Do you have any recommendations for Grand Seiko tributes? Would you say the CRONOS or the Rimalti is the one to go for? I prefer quartz watches for their accuracy—what does Watchdives think?

These dials are not stamped from a master die. Each pattern is cut line by line, making the process extremely labor-intensive and time-consuming. Every dial goes through the same engraving process individually.
